Working with dates in Excel pivot tables can get tricky. When you drag and drop a date field in the pivot table Excel automatically groups the dates into days, months and years. But with if you want to see the actual date and not the grouping? How can you quickly ungroup the dates? hint: There's an Excel shortcut to ungroup dates in a Pivot Table.
What if you'd also like to create different date grouping not available in the Pivot table? For example create a pivot table report showing fiscal periods or the weekday, quarter etc.
Another challenge you might come across is showing ALL the dates in the pivot table and not only the ones that have values. How can you unhide these dates with no values? It's really easy to setup. We'll be creating an automatic calendar table in the data model and then we can connect our tables together via relationships.
